It’s not whether you get knocked down, it’s whether you get up. - Vince Lombardi
Inspirational quote of the day by Vince Lombardi.
It is easy to feel defeated when you fail. Realise however, that getting knocked down is not a sign of weakness. Obstacles and setbacks are normal on your path to success. It is your ability to get up again and continue moving forward that separates the winners from the losers.
Instead of viewing failure as a terrible calamity, recognise that failure is not a dead end, but rather a stepping stone on your path to success. Learn from your failure, make the appropriate changes, and keep moving forward.
Vince Lombardi (1913-1970) was an iconic football coach and executive in the National Football League (NFL). He is considered to be one of the greatest coaches in the history of American sports.
During the 1960 NFL Championship game, the Green Bay Packers were losing against the New York Giants. Vince motivated his players to rise above the circumstances. "You're not tired. Get up there and block! Get out there and run! You're not tired." This spurred the Packers to mount a comeback and eventually win the game and secure the championship.
